A medical education costs perhaps more in proportion than any other, theological preparation excepted. A large number of young men anxious to obtain a medical education are deterred from doing so by the great outlay necessary. We understand that with a view of giving aid to those needing it, the Trustees and Faculty of the Louisville Medical Col> lege (Kentucky) have created a number of banpfiriary scholarships?Any aaa interested can obtain the facts by a letter addressed to the Louisville Medical College, Louisville, Ky., or upon application to the proprietor of the Enquirer. FOUND DEAD. Washington White, an aged colored man living neAr Fort Mill, was found dead on the 22nd ultimo, about one hundred aud fifty yards from his house. He had been missing from his house since the Wednesday morning previous. Before the corouer's iuquest the wife of the deceased testified to the fact of his physical weakness, and gave it as her opiuion that he died front exhaustion. J. E. Massey, M. D., testified that the body bore no marks of violence, and that in his opinion the deceased came to his death from exhaustion, produced by over exertion on account of his age and physical weakness. The verdict of the jury of inquest was in accordance with the foregoing facts. STATE DEMOCRATIC CONTENTION. a full state ticket to be nominated. [Special dispatch to the Enquirer.] Columbia, Aug. 16,10, A. M. The State Democratic Convention organ- i ized last night, with J. A. Hoyt, of Anderson, as temporary chairman. Col. W. W. Harllee, of Marion, was elected permanent chairman. No action was taken indicating the policy of the Convention as to postponing nominations. It is believed that a majority favor immediate nominations, and that a State ticket will be nominated to-day. Gen. Wade Hampton seems to be the only candidate spoken of for Governor. H. | Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM CHESTER. Chester, August 14, 1876. For want of space I gave a very meagre J aL. I account, in my last correspondence, 01 me proceedings of the County Convention that was held here on last Monday. The importance of the proceedings demands a fuller account. Major Julius Mills was Chairman, and W. A. Sanders Secretary of the Convention. After the calling of the roll, a report was submitted by the committee appointed at the last meeting of the Convention, recommending a compromise with the Republicans in reference to county offices. Before discussion of the report, a resolution was of-! fered by R. T. Mockbee, looking to the dissolution of the Convention, and providing for the convening of another Convention that would be more in accord with the wishes and sentiments of the people. Argumeut upon this point not being restricted to delegates, C. S. Brice, Esq., Major S. P. Hamilton, Gen. W. A. Walker and T. C. Gaston participated in the discussion, and for a while the battle raged violently between the "straight-outs" and anti "straight-outs." The forces of the former were led by Mr. R. T. Mockbee, and those of the latter by Major Julius Mills. The advocates of the dissolution of the Convention were "straight-outs," while their opponents argued in favor of a coutinuance of the body. The main reason advanced by those in favor of the resolution was that the Convention did not represent the people, inas^^much as there bad been a great revolution in VVpublic sentiment since the election of the delJ^egates. The opponents of the resolution held an entirely different view, that the Convention was a good representative body and should be allowed to continue in authority. The discussion was carried on with an exceeding amount of animation. The vote upon the resolution resulted in its utter defeat. This matter being disposed of, the Convention proceeded to the transaction of the business before it, viz.: the election of delegates to the State Democratic Convention. Before doing so, a resolution was introduced by Mr. J. S. Withere, instructing the delegates to vote for I I postponement of nominations by the DeraoI cratic Convention until after the meeting of the Republican Convention. Mr. R. T. Mockbee, with ail the earnestness at his command, took the ground that the postponement of nominations on the 15th, would result in great injury to the Democratic party, and argued in favor of putting "straight-out" candidates in the field. Major Julius Mills opposed instructions for the reason that the delegates would be in possession of all the facts bearing upon the political situation by the time of the meeting of the State Convention, and, consequently, should be left untrammeled in their action. The resolution being voted upon, was defeated by a considerable ma:r?ritv_ Nominations for delegates to the State Convention vere then in order. In addition to the nomination of those who were elected and whose names were given in my last correspondence, the "straight-out candidates," C. S. Brice, Esq., MajorS. P. Hamilton and Mr. R. T. Mock bee, were placed in the field. The election of the principals was followed by that of the alternates, which resulted in the choice of C. S. Brice, Esq., Mr. Wal' ir McFadden, Capt. William Henry and Gen. W. A. Walker. The Convention, after an exciting and interesting meeting, then adjourned. This honorable body will reassemble some day in the near future for the purpose of nominating county officers. One of the hardest rains that ever visited these parts fell on last Tuesday. An unbroken sheet of water poured for about two hours. At the s^me time the lightning flashed, the thunder roared, and the wind raged. The rain must have occasioned an overflow of streams, and thereby injured corn. An effort is being made to secure the removal from office of Trial Justice Sanders. The complaint is, that while arguing a case before Trial Justice Lowry, colored, he made a remark of some kind that wounded the official dignity of that official. A petition was carried around last week looking towards his removal, which ReDoblicans were expected to sign. The petition did not contain a large number of signatures at last accounts. Mr. Sanders has made a very acceptable official, and it is to be hoped that he will be retained in office. ( John Lilley, who broke jail a few days ago, has not yet been caught. A reward of $225, it is said, has been offered for his arrest. But the probabilities are that he has left his county for his county's good, and will never again be seen in these parts. A result of this kind would be the occasion of great joy to the people of this community. A drill of the Chester Sabre Club, commanded by Gen. W. A. Walker, took place on Thursday. The company formed in line on Main street, marched out to an old field, and there for some time were engaged in executing cavalry evolutions. Mr. Charles Doreey, who lived on the road to Yorkville, about seven miles from town, was thrown from a mule on Thursday, and killed. The sad occurrence took place about seven o'clock in the morning, near Mr. Isaac Smith's residence, where the unfortunate man had arrived on his way to Chester. He was never conscious after the occurrence, and died at 12 o'clock, living only five hours. The verdict of the jury of inquest was that "Charles Dorsey came to his death by his mule falling on him, and afterwards kicking him, the fatal kick being above bis right eye and near his temple " Mr. William Smith's plantation, in the up per portion of this county, was visitea witn a destructive hail-storm on last Tuesday. Thirty acres of corn and fifteen acres of cotton were almost entirely destroyed, and the rest of his crop considerably injured. Mr. Smith met with the same misfortune last year, on the 10th of August, two days later than that of this year. Hail also fell on Mr. Harper Carter's place, an adjoining plantation, but did not do much damage. Mr. John Coleman, a sufferer by the late firp nil Dppnl alraal, ia avhihiling hia antar. prise in the erection of another building on the same lot. The building will be of brick, and its dimensions will be sixty by forty feet. Mr. W. A. Nix, a sufferer by the same fire, will soon begin building operations on his lot. His house will be framed. Dr. James McCollum, of Carmel Hill, was tried before Trial Justice Lowry on Friday, charged with committing an assault upon rVNTnnl Wrtrfliv nnlnroH Thn Sfntp was |)n? able to establish anything more than a threat on the part of the defendant against the prosecuting witness, yet the jury, composed of three whites and three colored, could not agree upon their verdict. The blacks favored convictiou, and the whites acquittal. A picnic, which was attended by several hundred persons, was given at Baton Rouge a few days ago. The affair was a decided success. There was an abundance of good things to eat, and the young people danced to their hearts' content. Baton Rouge has not witnessed such a lively scene in a long time. Our friends at that place are thoroughly acquainted with the art of giving a picuic. Amzi Rosborcugh has been caught and lodged in jail. The people expect the jailor to make such a disposition of the prisoner that his escape for the second time will be an impossibility. He was caught by Mr. Joseph Smyer, and two colored men, at the residence of the former. Messrs. W. T. Cousar, W. H. Hardin, and J. Wesley Wilkes were the delegates from the Chester Circuit to the recent District Conference at Batesburg. Rev. Mr. Mitchell and Rev. Mr. Walker were the clerical delegates. Mr. Cephas Kee was the lay delegate from the East Chester Circuit. The meeting was well attended, and passed off pleasantly. Chester, August 15, 1876. The Chester Luminariesgave a concert last evening, which was a great success. The music was excellent, and was greatly enjoyed by the large number who were present. Solos were sung, and well sung, by Messrs. Alexander, Schorb, Walker and Hamilton. The brass band, of which Mr. E. M. Evans is the leader, also performed to the satisfaction of the audience. Mr. E. Kain executed several sleight-of-hand tricks in a skillful manner. The concert was given in behalf of a widow lady, in our midst, iu destitute circum j stances, and was well attended, aooui 900 ! was raised. Qui. The Grand Secret of Beauty is Health. The secret of health is the power to eat, digest and assimilate a proper quantity of wholesome, nutritious food. This can never be i done when the liver does not act its part. It is the great driving wheel in the mechanism ; of man, and when it iB out of order, the whole j organization becomes deranged, and fever, I dyspepsia, sick headache, constipation, jauu-1 dice, bilious colic, kidney disease and general debility ensues. To restore the normal func- j tions of the liver and impart that beauty, i which always attends a healthy, robust constitution,Dr. Tutt's Vegetable Liver Pili.s are conscientiously recommended. They are designed solely for the disordered liver and the disease which it produces. They are not a cure-all, but in the cases raeutioned theyj rarely ever fail to effect a cure. , Jfiitaiwttl anir Cmmmrcial. ; i YORKVILLE, August 10.?Cotton.?From 5 to 10.

Are you troubled with Indigestion, Constipation of the Bowels, Dyspepsia or any disease of the Liver? Have you suffered for years and found no relief from the use of medicines? Do you have a faint appetite, and are you troubled with feelings of languor? If you have these feelings we know you have not tried the new discoveiy, Merrell'b Hepatine, at JOHN C. KUYKENDAL'8 Drug Store. It is performing wonderful cures in this and all other communities where the people nse it. It is pronounced by all as the best Liver Medicine in the world. Two doses will relieve the worst case of Dyspepsia or Constipation of the Bowels. Each bottle contains fifty doses, and a teaspoonful of this medicine in a wineglassful of water three times a day for one day, produces a most wonderful change. Where the system is run down with loss of energy and appetite, or Dyspepsia, with all its train of evil, is effecting its deadly work, this remedy, Merrell's Hepatine, never fails to bring about a speedy and permanent cure. Those who doubt the merit and virtues of this medicine and live from day to day without trying the Hepatine, have our sympathy, but can not be cured unless they take the Medicine.
